3. Following the tightening order, tighten at 78±2N•m.
4. Completely loosen the bolts.
5. Next, following the tightening order, tighten the loosened
bolts at the torque 20±2N•m again.
6. Make paint marks on the cylinder head bolt’s head and
cylinder head.
7. Following the tightening order, tighten the cylinder head
by 90_.
8. Tighten by another 90_, and confirm that the paint mark
made on the cylinder head bolt’s head and the paint
mark on the cylinder head are positioned on the same
line.
Caution
(1) If the tightening angle is less than 90_, the
connection performance may not be attained, so
take special care to the tightening angle when
tightening.
(2) If the tightening angle is larger than the specified
value, completely loosen the bolt and start again
from step 1.
INSPECTION
1. CYLINDER HEAD
(1) Before cleaning the cylinder head, check it for water
leaks, gas leaks, damage or cracks.
(2) Completely remove the oil, water deposits, sealant
and carbon, etc. After cleaning the oil path, blow
air and confirm that there is not clogging.
(3) Using a straight edge and thickness gauge, inspect
the flatness of the bottom of the cylinder head for
strain.
If the strain exceeds the limit value, grind the end
and correct the flatness.
Standard value for lower surface strain: 0.05 mm
Limit value for lower surface strain: 0.2 mm
Grinding limit value: 0.2 mm
Cylinder head height (standard value for new part):
131.9 - 132.1 mm
Caution
The grinding limit is within 0.2 mm together with
the combined cylinder block.

improper seating with the valve seat, correct the valve
seat.
(2) Replace the valve if the margin exceeds the limit
value.
Standard value:
Intake 1.0 mm
Exhaust 1.5 mm
Limit value:
Intake 0.5 mm
Exhaust 1.0 mm
(3) Measure the total length of the valve, and replace
the valve if the length exceeds the limit value.
Standard value:
Intake 109.50 mm
Exhaust 109.70 mm
Limit value:
Intake 109.00 mm
Exhaust 109.20 mm
3. VALVE SPRING
(1) Measure the free height of the spring, and replace
the valve spring if the height exceeds the limit value.
Standard value: 48.3 mm
Limit value: 47.3 mm
(2) Measure the spring squareness, and replace the valve
spring if the inclination exceeds the limit value.
Standard value: 1.5_or less
Limit value: 4_
4. VALVE GUIDE
Measure the clearance between the valve guide and valve
stem. If the clearance exceeds the limit value, replace
the valve guide, valve or both parts.
Standard value:
Intake 0.02 - 0.05 mm
Exhaust 0.05 - 0.09 mm
Limit value:

5. VALVE SEAT
Assemble the valve, and measure the amount that the
valve protrudes from the valve shaft end between the
spring seat surfaces when the valve is pressed against
the valve seat. Replace the valve seat if the protrusion
amount exceeds the limit value.
Standard value:
Intake 49.20 mm
Exhaust 48.40 mm
Limit value:
Intake 49.70 mm
Exhaust 48.90 mm
Valve Seat Correction
1. Before correcting the valve seat, inspect the clearance
between the valve guide and valve, and replace the valve
guide if necessary.
2. Correct so that the seat width and seat angle are at the
specified shape.
3. After correcting, apply wrapping compound, and fit the
valve and valve seat together.
Valve Seat Replacement
1. Grind off the valve seat to be replaced from the inside
to reduce the thickness and then remove the valve seat.
2. Machine the valve seat hole on the cylinder head to match
the diameter of the oversized valve seat into which it
is to be pressed in.
Intake valve seat hole diameter:
0.3 O.S. 35.30 - 35.33 mm
0.6 O.S. 35.60 - 35.63 mm
Exhaust valve seat hole diameter:
0.3 O.S. 33.30 - 33.33 mm
0.6 O.S. 33.60 - 33.63 mm
3. When pressing in the valve seat, cool the valve seat
with liquid nitrogen, and make sure that the inner diameter
of the cylinder head is not galled.
4. Refer to the “Valve Seat Correction” procedures, and
machine the valve seat.Valve shaft end

Valve Guide Replacement
1. Using a press, push the valve guide to the cylinder block
side.
2. Machine the valve guide hole on the cylinder head to
match the oversized valve guide into which it is to be
pressed in.
Caution
Do not use a valve guide having the same size as
the removed valve guide.
Valve guide hole diameter:
0.05 O.S. 12.05 - 12.07 mm
0.25 O.S. 12.25 - 12.27 mm
0.50 O.S. 12.50 - 12.52 mm
3. Press in the valve guide to the dimensions shown in
the illustration.
NOTE
(1) Press in the valve guide from the top of the cylinder
head.
(2) Note that the length of the valve guides differs.
